I’d wait.

Win 95 was buggy but 95b was better
Win 98 was buggy but Second Edition was better
Win XP was buggy but Service Pack 2 was better

Another reason I’m happy to stay With Windows 7 and turned off the automatic updates. Did that after they tried to force Windows 10 on me without my permission. Yes, I also have firewalls and anti-virus programs aplenty.

My current Windows pc looks like Windows 7 with the start button, traditional desktop and no apps. Will we be able to do this with Win11?

Kinda like what the left are trying to do wit the vaccine.

Don’t k kw the veracity of the report I read yesterday, but it claimed that gates invested $55 million in vaccine company, and has gained over $710 million in return. If true, that is a whopping gain in a little over 1 year

I have a 2 year old refurbished Win 10 super fast computer and it says I need 'secure boot' and TPM 2.0.

Just curious, I'll stay with Win10.

Microsoft executives need to be charged with fraud for lying about Win10 being the “last OS”.

Don’t upgrade early goes without saying. If you can’t avoid running Windows entirely, wait at least a year after any major version is released.

It’s called “11.0”, but think of it as “eleven dot ut-oh”.
